Back in Belfast!
Joined October 2009
Excited to share that I secured funding to advance my work here! While we often focus on mental health declines, I want to explore mental well-being. We use this term often, but how is it conceptualized/measured & what influences it? This funding will help answer these Qs! 😆
With the support of the @hamhealth, we are thrilled to announce three of our Post-doctoral Fellows have received $20,000 each in funding to continue/begin their #research @McMasterU! We are so grateful to our donors for this generous gift. Congratulations to our post-docs!👏
